Nigeria’s youth are one of its greatest assets—and at GASDI, we are committed to helping them rise. Our “Rising Together” youth empowerment program focuses on unlocking the potential of young people through education, skill-building, and leadership development.

The Need for Youth Empowerment

With unemployment rates rising and access to opportunity still limited in many regions, Nigeria’s youth are often caught in a cycle of frustration. GASDI steps in by offering tailored programs that address these issues head-on.

We focus on:

• Digital literacy and tech skills
• Leadership and civic engagement
• Vocational training and entrepreneurship
• Mental health and personal development

Success Stories in Motion

One example is Emmanuel from Anambra, who joined our tech bootcamp with no prior experience. Today, he’s a freelance web developer earning a stable income and mentoring others in his community.

Our mobile learning units also bring education directly to underserved areas, providing access to computers, internet, and on-site facilitators.

More Than Skills—A New Mindset

We emphasize growth mindset, critical thinking, and collaboration. Youths leave our programs not only skilled, but inspired to lead, create, and solve problems in their communities.

The impact is clear: when youth rise, communities rise with them.
